Hey builders,

While building Jolt screen time (iOS only), one thing became clear: people don’t lose to distractions randomly.

They lose in the same moments, again and again.

So instead of building another blocker, we focused on when attention breaks.

Three patterns showed up:

1) The temptation moment

Once a “bad app” opens (IG, YouTube, games), the session is usually gone.

We built Good Apps First - bad apps stay blocked until you spend time in something intentional first.

Interesting part: after that, many users don’t even feel like opening the bad app anymore.

2) The bedtime collapse

People know they should sleep, but tired brain wins.

We built Sleep Mode - distracting apps lock at bedtime, essentials stay open.

Removes the nightly willpower fight.

3) The context moment

Distraction is often location-based (office, gym, etc).

We built GPS Blocking -  apps block automatically in specific place.

Big takeaway:  attention problems aren’t global, they’re contextual.

Now the harder part is distribution, not features.

1. Would love your take: Which of these feels most wedge-worthy?
2. Where would you focus distribution for this kind of app?

Also happy to share the app with anyone open to trying it and giving honest feedback.

not trying to hype anything just genuinely curious what this community thinks

Foundayo got approved this week a oral GLP-1, once daily, no injection, no food or water rules whatsoever, for people managing diabetes the GLP-1 angle is obviously relevant. clinical trials showed blood sugar improvements alongside 12.4% average weight loss

i know a lot of us have complicated feelings about new drugs. i know the efficacy gap with injectables is real. i know insurance is a nightmare

but $149/month self pay is a completely different conversation than what's been available before

has anyone's doctor brought this up yet or is it too new

genuinely just want to hear from people who actually live with this day to day.
